Fen Ling's eyes narrowed slightly after seeing Grand Tutor Wei's expression.
Still, she asked calmly,
"Grand Tutor Wei, have you completed the task that I entrusted to you?"
At that question, the entire hall became silent.
Everyone's attention shifted toward the old man.
Grand Tutor Wei lowered his head slightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty. This old minister has completed the investigation."
But then he paused, his expression remained unusually heavy.
Fen Ling noticed immediately.
She had known Grand Tutor Wei for many years.
And she understood his personality better than most.
For him to show such an expression… the matter was clearly not simple.
"What did you discover?"
Grand Tutor Wei did not immediately answer.
Instead, he slowly turned toward the entrance.
"Bring them in."
The moment his words fell, heavy footsteps echoed once again through the grand hall.
Two Shadow Dragon Guards entered while carrying two large black iron chests.
